I can shed a bit of light on Dale Watson.I only own his Christmas album.Got
it when Christmas music is slashed to half off.And yes, he sounds quite
traditional.He's got a deep, rich voice and surrounds himself with plenty of
twang.This is one I can only play when no one else is home.The family has a
thing about country.I have no doubt this guy would put on a nice show.Plenty
of honky tonk!
